The Little Town That Said "No": The Deseret Peak Utah Temple Story
Manage episode 449107172 series 3417427
In 2019, President Russell M. Nelson announced that there would be a new temple built in the Tooele area. Members of the LDS church were excited and speculated as to where it would be located. The temple site was announced and the renderings of the new temple made available in April of 2020. It was to be built in the small town of Erda, UT with only 3,000 residents and a completely rural environment.
But that wasn't all... It was soon announced that there would be a 167-acre pedestrian-oriented community right next to the temple. With 446 units ranging from single-family homes on half acre lots to townhouses and 54 senior housing units.
Residents of Erda were excited for a temple, but not the accompanying housing development. Could they have one without the other? Can you guess what the LDS church said?
